You may be referring to FILLIN fields. Stefan's suggestion of form fields or
content controls is better, but the Rolls Royce of solutions is a UserForm;

Apologies if this is a really simple question but i am seeking some
guidance. I am wanting to set up a template letter with much of the generic
information in it already - however I then want to personalise it with the
datkl of our discussion. As an example (I am an insurance adviser) I will
visit a client for a formal review and then send a statement of advice
around the points relevant to the discussion.
In the past I used something or other whereby each section to be altered ws
completed by a little box that appeared - I would fill in the text into the
box and there might have been 6 or 7 of them. Once completed it created the
letter - templated with generic detail but personalised with the individual
detail
Can anyone please point me towards the terminology to use and if possible
training material or demo
thanks \\Tony
